Sometime between 12 am and 9 am this morning someone decided to relieve my Jeep of the 2 Rear Jerry Cans (one of which was a trail can that does not hold fuel but instead has hidden compartments for tools; hold down bracket with custom welding and powdercoat; lug nuts for spare ; and firestick CB antenna.
Really stupid move on their part. The stole maybe 300 dollars of items and took a chance on jail or worse.
They left the spare and rim right next to my Jeep and must have been nearly motionless when removing these items. My alarm was set and my motion sensor is pretty sensitive cause its always doorless and roofless.
My night vision cameras were actually turned off for maintainence or things would have been quite different. Fixed that today! Its motivational when someone robs your shit! :P
Ive got outstanding insurance and I will be rebuilding with even more primo parts! Jerry cans were getting a bit weather beaten in spots anyway.
This time I am going to stealth wire reed switches that are tied into my auxillary channels of my alarm so if a Jerry can is lifted it completes the circuit and alarm fires. I will also increase my motion sensor zones that my camera triggers on.
Times are tough out there friends so make sure that you maintain excellent insurance that includes theft and vandalism. Keep receipts and adopt a mentality of "Its not if its going to happen , but when"
I knew it was coming and it took some Thomas Crowne bastard to pull it off.
So here is a rendition of my current Jeep "mod" LOL
